Just found this Jim Farley blog on his recent trip after the Monterey Historics to Las Vegas in Ford's better idea F150.........

"Charging has been pretty challenging," Farley said on X, the social-media website formerly known as Twitter. "It was a really good reality check of the challenges of what our customers go through and the importance of fast charging and what we're going to have to do to improve the charging experience."
His comment came during his roundtrip across Route 66 in Ford's latest electrical vehicle venture, the F-150 Lighting. The CEO documented his experience on both X and LinkedIn.

What idiot planned a Route 66 trip that goes nowhere near Route 66? Farley's road trip in the F-150 Lightning is to learn more about the EV experience. He followed Route 66 from Palo Alto, California, to Las Vegas.

If he "feels" or "thinks" he is on Route 66 then it must be true.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Let me add:

If the grid can take it, you just may not have your last ride in the EV, but different type of mustang

Enjoy your ride

Gas has always been pricey in Limeyville they came up with this option. I guess you could put solar panels on it too.
